| [00:02.95] |
If I hadn't dropped the ball, |
| [00:06.07] |
|
| [00:06.70] |
I would've took it all the way |
| [00:10.69] |
Homecoming '89 |
| [00:14.21] |
with ten seconds left to play |
| [00:17.26] |
|
| [00:18.20] |
We were drivin' toward the goal line, |
| [00:22.01] |
they were screamin' in the stands |
| [00:25.64] |
I had the chance to be a hero, |
| [00:29.39] |
but it slipped right through my hands |
| [00:33.33] |
There would've been a big pep rally, |
| [00:37.39] |
the would've hung my jersey on the wall |
| [00:43.39] |
|
| [00:46.40] |
If I hadn't dropped the ball |
| [00:51.22] |
|
| [00:52.97] |
Me and Cindy Miller |
| [00:56.16] |
were supposed to meet after the game |
| [01:00.21] |
I waited by the bleachers, |
| [01:03.84] |
but she never came |
| [01:07.47] |
I found a note on my windshield |
| [01:11.59] |
underneath the wiper blade |
| [01:15.10] |
With goodbye bleedin' through it |
| [01:18.78] |
in the cold October rain |
| [01:22.72] |
We probably would've gotten married |
| [01:26.71] |
And those recruiters in from 'Bama would've called |
| [01:32.85] |
|
| [01:35.78] |
If I hadn't dropped the ball |
| [01:40.72] |
|
| [01:41.85] |
My life would've been so different if in that instant |
| [01:47.35] |
Things had gone the way i planned |
| [01:52.79] |
|
| [01:53.48] |
But the fact is that they didn't, |
| [01:57.00] |
and the hand i wound up getting |
| [02:01.05] |
Is something that i'll never understand |
| [02:07.88] |
|
| [02:10.94] |
I ran away that summer, |
| [02:14.38] |
took a job out on the coast |
| [02:18.07] |
And that's where I met your mama, |
| [02:21.69] |
and the rest I guess you know |
| [02:25.82] |
If I had the chance to go back |
| [02:29.63] |
and score that last touchdown |
| [02:33.58] |
Well, son, I wouldn't do it, |
| [02:37.13] |
'cause you wouldn't be here now |
| [02:41.01] |
And I wouldn't be your hero, |
| [02:44.65] |
I wouldn't be around to catch you when you fall |
| [02:50.89] |
|
| [02:53.66] |
If I hadn't dropped the ball |
| [02:58.54] |
|
| [02:59.98] |
My life would've been so different if in that instant |
| [03:05.31] |
Things had gone the way i planned |
| [03:10.63] |
|
| [03:11.51] |
But the fact is that they didn't |
| [03:15.07] |
and the hand i wound up getting |
| [03:18.93] |
Is the one that god intended me to have |
| [03:26.79] |
No, I wouldn't be the man I am at all |
| [03:32.01] |
If I hadn't dropped the ball |
